A textbook store sold a combined total of 331 physics and sociology textbooks in a week. The number of sociology textbooks sold was 45 less than the number
of physics textbooks sold. How many textbooks of each type were sold?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: Number of sociology books sold = 143 books

              Number of physics books sold = 143 + 45 = 188 books

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us take the number of sociology books sold = x

Number of physics books sold = x+45

So now we can form an equation

x+x+45 = 331

2x+45 = 331

2x = 331-45

2x = 286

x = 286 ÷ 2

x = 143

Work —
First line:
y = 2 (9)
y = 18

Second line:
10 = 2x
5 = x

Third line:
y = 2 (1)
y = 2

Answer:

1. y=18

2. x=5

3. y=2

Step-by-step explanation:

y=2x

1.

As you have x, substitute (replace) x for 9 to find y.

2×9=18 (We times 2 by 9 because, in algebra, when a number is next to a letter, it means to times).

So, y=18

2.

As we know that y=10, do the same thing and substitute.

10=2x

Isolate x by dividing:

10÷2=5

So, x=5

3.

Substitute x:

2×1=2

So, y=2

Find the value of 9x + 4y, when x = 4 and y = -3.

Answers

Answer:

hope found the answers bye.

Step-by-step explanation:

9x + 4y - 4  =  0     

Putting in the x-value of -1, we get:

9(-1) + 4y - 4  =  0

Simplifying:

-9 + 4y - 4  =  0

Combining the -9 and the -4:

4y - 13  =  0

Getting rid of the -13 by adding 13 to both sides:

4y - 13 + 13  =  0 + 13

4y  = 13

Dividing both sides by 4:

y = 13/4

Checking:  Is 9(-1) +4(13/4) -4  really zero?    Yes!

Solve the above problem by using decimals.

Answers

Answer:

If you want to turn a percentage into a fraction divide by 100:

20%/100 = 0.2

0.2*16 = 3.2$

and if you want to turn a decimal into a fraction multiply by 100.

His discounted price will be 3.2$.

Have a nice day! :-)

and if you have questions please ask!

Percentage is the part of a whole given as a fraction of the hundred. The discounted price of the CD is $12.8.

Given information-

Andrew has a coupon for 20 % off of the price of any CD.

The price of the CD purchased by the Andrew is $16.

Percentage

Percentage is the part of a whole given as a fraction of the hundred.

As the Andrew has a coupon of 20 percent, the 20 percent will be off whatever he buys. Now the discount price for the $16 priced CD is equal to the 20 percent of the 16. Thus the discount is,

[tex]d=\dfrac{16\times20}{100} \\ [/tex]

[tex]d=3.2[/tex]

Thus the discount on the CD is 3.2.

Now the discounted price of the CD is equal to the difference of the price of the CD and the discount. Thus the discounted price of the CD is,

[tex]P=16-3.2[/tex]

[tex]P=12.8[/tex]

Thus the discounted price of the CD is $12.8.

TAXI RATES A New York City taxi charges $2.50, plus $.40 for each fifth of a
mile if it is not delayed by traffic. Write an expression for the cost of the ride
if you travel x miles in the taxi with no traffic delays.

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

C(x) = 2.50 + 5(0.40x)

<=> C(x) = 2.50 + 2.00 x

The required expression for the taxi charges is C(x) = $2.50 + 0.4  * x/5.

Given that,
A New York City taxi charges $2.50, plus $.40 for each fifth of a
mile if it is not delayed by traffic. To determine an expression for the cost of the ride, if travel x miles in the taxi with no traffic delays to determined.

What is arithmetic?

In mathematics, it deals with numbers of operations according to the statements. There are four major arithmetic operators, addition, subtraction, multiplication and division,

Here,
Let the number of miles be x,
The total charge be C(x)
Now accoding to the condition total charge could be the sum of the cost of every fifth mile and $2.40. So, every fifth mile = x / 5
Now,
C(x) = 2.40 + 0.40 * x/5

Thus, the required expression for the taxi charges is C(x) = $2.50 + 0.4  * x/5.

Answers

Answer:

The dimensions of the mirror is 9 feet and 2 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Keep in mind that the area and perimeter of a rectangle is:

Area - length x width

Perimeter - 2 (l + w)

List the factors of 18 (the area of the mirror):

1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18

POSSIBLE DIMENSIONS OF MIRROR:

1 ft and 18 ft

Area = 18 ft^2

Perimeter = 38 feet

2 ft and 9 ft

Area = 18 ft^2

Perimeter = 22 feet

3 ft and 6 ft

Perimeter = 18 feet

The rectangle with dimensions 2 feet and 9 feet corresponds with the area and perimeter of the mirror mentioned. So those are the correct dimensions.

A man invested ksh. 36000 in two companies P and Q . Company P pays a dividend of 11.25% while Q pays a dividend of 10.5%. Is from his total investment, he obtained a return of 10.75%,how much did he invest in each company?​

Answers

Answer:

Investment in company P = 12,000

Investment in company Q = 24,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Total investment = 36,000

Dividend paid by company P = 11.25%

Dividend paid by company Q = 10.5%

Total return = 10.75%

Now, let investment made in company P be 'a' and company 'Q' be 'b.' So,

A.T.Q.

a + b = 36,000  ...(i)

11.25% of a + 10.5% of b = 10.75% of 36000  ...(ii)

On simplification,

a + b = 36,000

11.25% of a + 10.5% of b = 3870

Now,

11.25% of a + 10.5% of (36000 - a) = 3870

⇒ 0.1125 * a + 0.105 * (36000 - a) = 3870

⇒ 0.1125 a + 3780 - 0.105a = 3870

⇒ 0.1125a - 0.105 a - 3870 - 3780

⇒ 0.0075 a = 90

⇒ a = 90/0.0075

∵ a = 12000

Since, a = P = 12,000

Q = b = (36000 - a)

= 36000 - 12000

= 24,000

Thus,

Investment in company P = 12,000

Investment in company Q = 24,000

Answer:

Amount invested in P = 12,000

Amount invested in Q = 24,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Amount invested = 36,000 in two companies P and Q

P pays dividend = 11.25%

Q pays dividend = 10.5%

Total return = 10.75%

Find:

Amount invested in each company

Computation:

Total return = 36,000 x 10.75

Total return = 3870

Assume;

Amount invested in P = a

So,

Return in P = a x 11.25%

Return in P = 0.1125a

Return in Q = [36000 - a]10.5%

Return in Q = 3,780 - 0.105a

Total return = Return in P + Return in Q

3,870 = 0.1125a + 3,780 - 0.105a

90 = 0.0075a

a = 12,000

Amount invested in P = 12,000

Amount invested in Q = 36,000 - 12,000

Amount invested in Q = 24,000
